Influence of fish oil in the concentration of conjugated linoleic acid and omega 6 and 3 in buffalo milk
Published: September 4, 2018
Summary
Introduction Consumption of saturated fatty acids in milk and meat from ruminants is associated with an increased incidence of coronary heart disease in human beings (Menotti et al.,1999). The fat from ruminant products is frequently considered harmful to human health due to the high saturated fatty acid content. However, a fat component, the conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) contains antic...

Hi there,
I was always looking for a citation to show how omega 3 (linoleinc acid) is a precursor of CLA. Could you please help me to find the answer?

Lipid Metabolism and the Brain. Linoleic acid (LA, C18:2n-6, precursor of n-6 fatty acids) and a-linolenic acid (ALA, C18:3n-3, precursor of n-3 fatty acids) are essential fatty acids (EFAs) not produced by mammals which must be ingested through diet.

Thanks for your reply. I know that they are essential, but my question is "how does a-linolenic acid (3 double bonds) produce CLA (2 double bonds) in rumen? As far as I know a-linolenic cannot convert to CLA.

The results of this interesting work on the effects of changing the ration constituents through including fish oil in the ration on the milk fat composition (Conjugated linolenic acid, Omega 6 and 3 ) seem so important as far as the health benefits of such good fats are concerned. Nevertheless, it would be more valuable and reliable to increase the experimental units in the future researchers on the same and similar objectives. Thank you.

What dose of flaked flaxseed could replicate 70mL of fish oil? I would like to think the fish oil contributed to fertility and overall health on the way thru the buffalo small intestine as well as the overall human health attributes?
Very interesting!
